routes or lines etc.). As a part of the requirement to increase the attraction and
competitiveness of public transport, the demand was expressed to form an interac-
tive transport plan and analyse transport services in the area, de
ne attraction
districts of stops and many others. That was the moment when KIDSOK staff
realized that the existing data are insuf
cient and the effort and
financial means will
have to be invested to acquire correct, up-to-date and
first of all complete data. The
data will be used by the organiser
'
controller systems because the data model contains attributes important for PT
organizers (focused on passenger needs and public transport management and
control) but also attributes related to operation. While the passenger is interested in
information about wheelchair access, vehicles moving within the network, delays,
possible connections between two points and the appearance of the boarding edge
(Fig.

), the carrier needs to know the data concerning the height of the boarding
edge, the length and depth of the bay, lighting and other technical parameters of the
stop or its parts.
The bene

sof
cials, later also by passengers and carriers
t of the newly established data warehouse of the expertly created data
model is the evidence of complete data on PT including all existing attributes, the
existence of the expertly elaborated codelists preventing unprofessional interpre-
tation, great positional and topological accuracy of objects, ensuring complete data
collection by means of modern technologies (GPS, tablet, GIS) and easy updating
of the data.
